AgroLiquid Announces Plans for New Production Facility in Lake City, Florida

Forty years of innovation in plant nutrition to culminate in Southeastern expansion.

St. Johns, Mich. (March 6, 2024) - AgroLiquid announces the upcoming construction of a new 48,355-square-foot production facility in Lake City, Florida. This strategic decision reflects AgroLiquid's unwavering commitment to prosper the farmer, by providing liquid fertilizers closer to our customers through faster and more efficient services.

The new facility, situated on nearly 20 acres within the North Florida Mega Industrial Park (NFMIP), will bolster AgroLiquid's ability to meet the evolving needs of farmers across the southeastern United States, including Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Tennessee, Georgia, South Carolina and North Carolina. By establishing a local manufacturing presence, AgroLiquid aims to streamline operations, reduce transportation time and cost, and minimize environmental impacts associated with current long-distance product hauling.

The design of the facility prioritizes safety, with closed-loop containment areas featuring stainless steel storage tanks and fully enclosed concrete trenches for product handling. Layout of both the containment area and truck-loadout area ensures the capacity to hold 110 percent of the largest container on site. This requirement is mandated for facilities in some states and is a standard practice in all AgroLiquid manufacturing locations.

"This new manufacturing facility marks a significant milestone for AgroLiquid. It is a testament to our dedication to excellence and our confidence in the future of our industry," said Nick Bancroft, CEO for AgroLiquid. "We look forward to creating this space that not only enhances our production capabilities but also brings us closer to our customers in the southeast and contributes positively to the Lake City community."

In addition to generating new job opportunities, the Lake City facility will contribute millions of dollars in private capital investment to the local economy, supporting the region's rich agricultural heritage, and fostering overall economic growth and stability. Moreover, AgroLiquid remains steadfast in its commitment to safety and environmental stewardship.

The production of AgroLiquid products is designed to generate zero waste that could pose a threat to the environment and surrounding areas. Specifically, the Lake City site is committed to not producing any waste,

hazardous materials, excessive noise or water and land contaminants.

AgroLiquid looks forward to the positive impact this facility will have on the local community, the agricultural sector, and our continued dedication to excellence in plant nutrition.

A groundbreaking ceremony for the new production facility is scheduled for March 19, 2024, and the facility is expected to be fully operational by early 2025.
